Marist College in Poughkeepsie has revoked an honorary degree it awarded to former Fox News commentator Bill O’Reilly, according to a statement posted Sunday on the school’s website.
The statement referenced the sexual harassment claims made against O’Reilly during his time at Fox News and reports that the network paid millions to settle harassment cases against him.
O’Reilly, aka "Have Loofah Will Travel", who was raised in Levittown and now lives in Manhasset, hosted “The O’Reilly Factor” from 1996 until his departure from the cable news channel last April.
He's now stuck in podcast hell where a hand full of deplorables tune in to get their BS fix.
“To many, his reported payments of tens of millions of dollars and dismissal by Fox News lend credibility to the allegations against him,” the statement reads.
“Any form of sexual harassment or abuse is deeply contrary to the values of Marist College.”
